I ordered the citrus orange glazed salmon salad and was given plain salmon with no glaze. They said they were out of the glaze. No one came to me in advance to let me know that they were out of the glaze so I could’ve changed my order. I was just expected to eat the plain salmon. I was charged full price. I asked the waiter for a discount since I did not get my full meal. She spoke with the manager and gave me a 10% discount, which is ridiculous. So disappointing because I have eaten at True Foods many times and have never been treated so dismissively.

Our server was amazing, he did a great job recommending wonderful dishes and a delicious appetizer. He was quick with many ice tea refills and was so friendly and positive and helpful. Giovanni was the best server we have had there.

I don't know San Diego very well and was excited when I found this place online. Locally sourced ingredients? Yay! I wasn't expecting what felt like a chain restaurant inside of a mall. And I know prices have gone up at restaurants, but a tuna bowl for $25. was still a bit shocking. Even worse was that it didn't taste good. Nothing anyone ordered did. It was truly subpar. I was so disappointed!!!

We're sorry to hear that your experience didn't meet your expectations, especially with the taste and pricing of our dishes. Thank you for your feedback; we'll work on improving to provide a better experience.

I’ve been here before and was not impressed. As a winner of the promo, I received the tender chicken strips plate. It was not that great, as I had expected. Nothing as far of Birthday celebration either. I was rather disappointed.
